I can't believe it. here I am kneeling in front of the toilet puking my guts out and this guy I just met is holding my hair back so that it won't get too dirty. Because of the amount of sweetness and adorableness of the moment I look over my shoulder and smile at him. I'm still a bit drunk but my mind was starting to clear. He turns me around and pulls me into his chest. 

"I think that you should get some rest." He tells me. I nod as I spend the spend the rest of the night cuddled into James' chest. I can't understand why, but I feel so safe with him. I start to drift off to sleep feeling safer than I have in a long time.

" Hey, hey, hey." he says while gently shaking me " you can't sleep here, come on I'll take you home." we walk to his car I give him the directions to my house and 10 minutes later he pulls into my driveway. 

"Do you want to stay over?" I ask him

"He responds, "I already told you that I think you should get some rest." then he adds "But give me your number I'll call you tomorrow." we exchange numbers, and he doesn't notice the huge smile on my face.

"Goodnight." he says and gives me a quick kiss on the cheek. My face flushes red as he goes back to his car, and I watch him drive off. I save his number in my phone quickly, I name his contact 'love' and the walk back inside. I flop myself onto my bed and fall asleep quickly. I spend the whole night dreaming about him, I dream about his dark hair and deep eyes.

"Hi Maddie" he says picking up the phone with the sound of his voice, the safety I felt with him last night floods back and coats me like a hug from him, I can't help but smile as I respond 

"Hey James." I respond

"I hope I'm not waking you up." he tells me

" Not at all." I reply still smiling. somehow, he knows that I'm lying because he remarks

"Yes, I did, why don't I take you on a date tonight to apologize."

"I would love to." I quickly respond trying to hold back a squeal but I'm ultimately ineffective because a small one comes out; he just laughs and tells me he'll pick me up at 7.
